Statustray: what is your email address there? Not really sure of how to do a invite other than using a email address. Region: Sub-Saharan Africa Populations: Baka, Mbenzele, Mbuti (Pygmies), Hadza, San the last post was for my paternal side

Seventies Soulchild: That's pretty specific. See I didn't get that for my grandfather. For his paternal its E1b1a8a

Statustray: So you did more than one person in your family?

Seventies Soulchild: For his maternal its L2a1c1 No one else wanted to take the test.

Seventies Soulchild: The E1b1a8a, very specific, supposedly belonged to people in Nigeria... but I also took that AfricanAncestry test and it came out to be people from Burkina Faso Statustray, it should tell you in the "History" tabbed link

Statustray: ok

Seventies Soulchild: Hold on sorry, in the "Map" when you go into the link for your paternal ancestry. The little purple box on the right side of the screen it should give you an idea of the date range and how common it is to African Americans however, I did a lot of googling.

Statustray: I guess that's what I need to do too. This is my very first dna submittal. So I am a rookie/newbie to all of this.

Seventies Soulchild: I completely understand. I'm no expert myself

Statustray: Can the results of this testing site be shared with other sites for analysis?

Khathu: How many ggg grandparents have you been able to identify?

Seventies Soulchild: I don't like how this page automatically shortens a short URL. annoying skip the 's' on that URL

Khathu: Seventies or Statustray

Seventies Soulchild: Ok so, I was going to comment on that yesterday... but I really had to think on that.. lol

alt: I'll be one happy dude when the 1940 census finally gets indexed... this searching be ED is a 'pain in the patootie'.

Daviss: doing good thanks Statustray!!

Statustray: That's good to hear Daviss. I agree alt. I'm so spoiled.... lol....

Daviss: a little nippy here

alt: although I'm seeing a lot of stuff I would probably overlook if it was already indexed by having to go page by page within an ED.

Statustray: it's hot here alt - I have got to agree with you there. I have been in the habit of finding a person via index, then going back and forth a few pages on each side to look for others. And depending on the total # of pages, I have been known to eye ball scan them page by page.

Seventies Soulchild: ok Daviss

Daviss: I am thinking of subscribing to Archives to see what they have

Seventies Soulchild: Do you follow them on Twitter

Daviss: who archives?

Seventies Soulchild: yes

Daviss: no

Seventies Soulchild: They are always posting links to stuff there relevant to their records.

alt: one thing is for sure... those enumerator's took some strange and circular routes in their canvassing.... the next family enumerated ain't neccesarily next door.... they are often around the corner on another street, across the street, but they ain't next door LOL LOL

Seventies Soulchild: Crazy.

alt: Daviss, I have Archives.com, but seldom use it. don't ask me why

Seventies Soulchild: I meant the national archives sorry

Daviss: why is that alt?

alt: hhehehe @ Daviss

Daviss: oops dont ask lol

alt: I dunno... gues I'm now used to ancestry & also familysearch. and then the 'local' websites

Seventies Soulchild: brb

Daviss: now alt if you dont use it, it must not be worth it
